Article Abstract
We present seven cases of tremor caused by mild head injury without loss of consciousness.The interval between head trauma to onset of symptoms was 1 to 4 weeks.A posture and kinetic tremor of the hands and head occurred unassociated with other neurologic signs.Myoclonic-like jerking was frequently present.Neuroimaging studies were normal.Clonazepam administration resulted in tremor reduction in three patients and propranolol decreased tremor in one patient.A tremor,similar to essential tremor,can be a rare complication of head trauma.
